A few guys, I think 5 in total, went down in our group this morning on the Lido back straight, 28 April, JHB south. Stopped and helped the guys to the side, picked up bikes etc... But had to leave before help arrived. Anyone know if all were ok?
There are signs. And on weekend mornings there is Helivac (Shaun), and a vehicle sponsored by Lexus that drive support, with a paramedic. I think we need to support these initiatives. Incidents like this remind one of the value they are adding.
Just a thank you to Lexus and Helivac for an outstanding initiative. Lexus The Glen is sponsoring an RX350 vehicle, and Helivac provides a paramedic, and they drive support every weekend in JHB South for the 7:00 groups. It has now been a few weeks, and I for one feel so much safer on the bike. Traffic now respects us, and if there is a fall, instant paramedic! Thanks Warren Swartz (Lexus) and Shaun Hannie (Helivac)!
Did a poll on this a while ago. 95% of people had good experiences 4% complained of damage one was unhappy, but fixed by seller interestingly no one said the seller took the bucs and ran! Check it out at: https://www.bikehub.co.za/forum_posts.asp?TID=68332
